From Siam with Love

The first time I went to Bangkok, I met Yin.  Friends of mine had discovered her shop and thought I might like the scarves she offered. Then, I looked around.  A lot.  In the end, I returned to her with the realization that her scarves were the most unique, sophisticated, and beautifully woven I had seen.

I have been working with her ever since.  The Spring/Summer Collection just arrived this week. Well, we started the selection process in the spring but now that it is summer - let's just call it the Summer Collection.

Yin works with as many as 20 weavers who live in villages in the northeastern provinces of Thailand. They are farming villages but the women are also masterful weavers.  Lucky us.

The collection includes narrow, medium, and wide scarves and shawls in silk, raw silk, and cotton. Each is unique.  Priced from $60 - $120.

By the way, we have also received new shipments from Sasha Bell, Amy Torello, and Momo Mordant.

Drop by and say hi and add a new scarf to your collection - it will help buffer the wind and fog that defines our summer in the city.
